Is that why I never see big versions of critters till later on?

[duckman]

Seeing as reducing it speeds up monster evolution, probably not. Could have sworn that reducing the setting slowed it down at one point...

Apparently that was an issue with the wording in the description.

The problem for me might have been starting in fall though. 28 days would have passed, and if the skipped time doesn't take changes to monster evolution scaling into account, then that would explain why feral predators even exist when the only things in that line around should be runners and the occasional hunter.

On the other hand, I often find myself mashing things to skip through tedious prompts (like repeated messages of some distant dog/wimpy zombie or crafting interruptions), only to get ganked by some brute/shocker/hulk/shocker brute I didn't notice around the corner.

Yeah, this happens to me a lot too. Wish there was a way to customise the safe mode a bit more.

An overhaul for safe mode would be nice. Like if you could set it for a certain amount of spaces or only when you are attacked.

Yeah, would be great.

Out of curiosity, does anyone else start acting really quickly when things get all intense? I always start mashing buttons quickly as I move and shoot, as though it actually helps me. And I feel the urge to shoot my revolver as fast as possible.

And don't forget that when you attack, smashing the button very hard will make your character deal more damage.

If you keep a steady hand when you're pushing the fire key your shots will be more accurate.

Hmm...Do labs normally spawn a science ID in them for you to get out of them with?

Did a lab challenge start and I actually made it up all way to the surface..I just can't open the doors to get out. It's been three days now and my character is starting to get super hungry. And I have run out of mutant arms. x.x I tried burning down the doors with my mini-flamethrower but it didn't work.

No; read the description, you're not *supposed* to be able to get out by default. You can, and doing so may involve fire, or if you find some explosives, or whatever, or you may luck out and, like I did, find a connection to the sewer system underground, but the assumption is you will die there.

[Sheb]

It used to be possible to bash your way out, isn't that the case anymore?

[Aseaheru]

You can bash your way out. Easiest way is via sewers, if any.

[Adragis]

Or just find teleporter and spam it. It's too fast for the turret to getcha.

[Arcvasti]

Its still possible, its just been made a LOT harder, I think.

Worst case, debug in a Jaquehammer and gas.

Found a drivably-intact Security Van. Drove around a sizable horde to a gas station. No diesel, but I found a Humvee down the street with some. Had to dodge around a giant wasp that took down nearly a dozen zombies on its own. As the horde closed in, I drove across the bridge out of town.


Unfortunately, poor Sakuya the maid-who-is-hoping-to-find-Time-Dilation-CBMs-and-a-giant-pile-of-throwing-knives came down with the flu. Oh, and I found a H&K UCP next to the seat.



Do objects thrown during while using Time Dilation stay in the air until you turn it off? Or do you simply throw them harder(judging from the description of the CBM)?


EDIT: Possible bug. I rammed an NPC into water using the above security van. I got several messages saying "You're drowning" before the NPC finally died. NPC was not in deep water, since I could walk over and loot the corpse.

Chances are his everything was so broken that he couldn't stand up and just drowned in knee-high water because you're an awful, horrible person. You should have at least put him out of his misery.

Ive made it for 6 seasons thus far.  Ive looted the ice lab for mounds of flesh, and it all rotted.  I did get some serums and the missing books.  Ive got a problem where my cooking is stuck at 6.  No book I have/can remember increases it to 7, where I can begin reading advanced level books, and it decays too fast when I do cook something more complex than the jerky Im cooking now that Im a carnivore.
